Bluffton opened up the season with a blowout win of Cory-Rawson, winning 49-13.
The Pirates dominated on defense and on the ground, racking up 304 yards and three turnovers, two for touchdowns.
Dylan Ault started the scoring with 35-yard interception return for a touchdown early in the game and then Clay Wilson returned a fumble 35 yards for another defensive score.
Bluffton’s offense finally got on the field and Noah Stratton sprinted 42 yards for the first offensive touchdown of the season and to close the 1st half 22-0.
The Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce’s annual business showcase at Bluffton University is Thursday, Sept. 19. The deadline for sign up is Monday, Sept. 16.

When TOMS Shoes emailed her about a contest last winter, Stephanie Jankov didn’t know if she should enter.
She had been introduced to the company by Jill Schlabach, her former Bluffton University roommate, and liked its practice of providing one free pair of shoes to a needy child for every pair purchased. She later incorporated that commitment to making a difference into her teaching of freshman English students at Shelby (Ohio) High School, even offering—and buying—TOMS shoes as an incentive for class projects.
